It should be noted that when the final settlement was made with respect to the operation and sale of these vessels that were built by the government during the last war and placed under the management of the crown-owned Park Steamship company, the government was able to recover approximately $200 million vis-à-vis the total expenditure of $270 million.
À noter que l'entente finalisant la vente et l'exploitation de ces navires, que le gouvernement avait construits au cours de la dernière guerre et dont il avait confié la gestion à la Park Steamship Company, société appartenant à la Couronne, permettait aux pouvoirs publics de récupérer environ 200 millions de dollars, alors que le total des dépenses engagées s'élevait à 270 millions de dollars.
